  • Thank you

    I just want to thank you for this podcast and particularly the recent episodes with Laura Rambikur and Paul James Johnson. I appreciated their vulnerability and authenticity in sharing about their experiences running ultras. Even more so, I appreciated their perspective about life in general. The quality and inspiration of these guests will keep bringing me back to DTE.

  • One of my go to podcasts

    One of my favorite podcasts about a passion of mine. I am also writing this review to ask if you could do an episode about the Ouray 100. I know it’s a 100 mile but it’s a very unique multi day event which I know Peter and some friends of the show have done. I also love this race personally so this request is a bit selfish. Love the show regardless!

  • My favorite running podcast!

    Thank you for this great podcast. I am preparing for my first 200+ ultra. I’m jumping in at the deep end as I’ve only raced two fairly flat 50K. I’m running Crossing Switzerland 400K in July. My coach pointed me towards this podcast and I love it. Kevin and Peter, y’all are great. And so are the guests. Getting lots of good info and pointers, while also enjoying the positive vibes! I’ve enjoyed it so much, I am working my way backwards through the archives!

  • Down to earth straight talk for crazy people

    These guys aren’t trying to have a stand up routine. They provide down to earth, real talk about all the 200s and have great interviews. Also super helpful in my recent analysis paralysis!
